COGS & DATS

A Horse Racing & Breeding Game 

After their horse milk empire collapsed thanks to the devastating arrival of pig milk, Beaker the dog and Pushinka the cat must pivot their 17 unemployed horses into a racing stable. Breed champions, watch dramatic races, place bets, and climb from bankruptcy to glory.

HOW TO PLAY

STABLE - View your horses, check their stats, rename them, sell the duds, or hit MUTATE to scramble one into something new.

RACE - Enter up to 3 of your horses into a race, pick a track, bet on a winner (yours or an opponent), and watch the chaos unfold. Horses stumble into walls, launch off ramps, bounce on trampolines, and explode if they run backwards.

BREED - Combine two horses for a foal with blended stats, or switch to WILD BREED and splice a horse with a fish, motorcycle, rocket, ghost, pizza, banana, hot duck, pig, or 5 other ridiculous things. Each wild breed creates a mutant with unique visual mutations and trait abilities that activate during races.

UPGRADES - Invest your winnings into your stable empire. Refurbish the track, build a horse spa, buy a beach house, and work toward retirement... or total pig milk industry domination.

TIPS

  • Older horses get injured more often. Breed replacements.
  • Wild breeding costs more but can produce overpowered mutants.
  • The Horse Spa (10,000 Cogs) is the best early upgrade.
  • Invest in retirement savings early - 6% compound interest adds up fast.
  • Duck-bred horses unlock the QUACK SURGE race ability.
  • Hit MUTATE (75 Cogs) on a boring horse for a cheap gamble.
  • There are 2 secret species, can you breed them?
